I'd bet on that.

I don't know if it was a factor, but suspect all the twists and turns related to this site, the delays and problems before it became West Block were a factor in a less enthusiastic response than hoped.
However if so, this is too bad as it turned out nice. So hopefully there will be more confidence in the future. The location, with proximity to the LRT, has plusses and minuses and you don't get to the plusses that much until construction is done.

Yeah, I agree. Things will improve in terms of amenities in the area, as well, with the next phase being constructed (I believe it has more CRUs), there's a grocery store going just a couple of blocks away (Freson Bros. on 107 ave/142 st) and, with the LRT completed, these will probably become quite attractive. If I had the cash, I'd probably buy one (or more) of these right now to cash out in 4 or 5 years.

Ladies and gents, I didn’t get a photo but there is equipment on the NW lot where the old apartment used to be.
I think there’s an excavator on site too??

I'm guessing rental? I know they had trouble selling some of the units in the last tower.
**Edit: Great news, regardless! One of my favourite developments in the city. The retail area raised the bar in the city, imo.

Hmm. I wonder why? Seems weird to be decreasing when rental vacancies are only decreasing and prices increasing.

Any movement on this? Construction fencing up?
